PENN International VISX Extreme Conventional Reel 16VISX Silver

Why you need this

The PENN 16VISX Extreme is built for anglers who push their gear hard in deep water. Designed with a reinforced aluminum frame and the upgraded Extreme Dura-Drag™ system, this reel delivers smooth, consistent drag even under heavy sustained pressure. The 16VISX is a sweet spot for Alaska halibut anglers — powerful enough for deep drops, yet compact enough to fish comfortably all day.

Finished in clean silver anodizing, it offers the same elite performance as the gold version with a more understated look.

2-speed quick-shift system for torque and control
Extreme Dura-Drag™ for high sustained drag loads
Machined and assembled in the USA
Oversized stainless steel main and pinion gears
Built for heavy braid and deep water fishing

What’s this good for?

Deep halibut fishing in Cook Inlet, Kodiak, and the Gulf
Heavy jigging for lingcod
Bottom fishing in 300–700 ft
80–130 lb braid setups
Anglers who want maximum reliability season after season

How to use?

Pair with a heavy-duty conventional rod
Spool with 80–130 lb braid depending on depth
Use high gear for faster line pickup
Shift into low gear when lifting heavy fish
Set your drag precisely — this reel has serious stopping power

Why we love this one

The 16VISX is one of the most versatile reels in the VISX lineup for Alaska. It balances power, capacity, and comfort perfectly. Whether you’re dropping deep for halibut or grinding up a stubborn lingcod, this reel delivers consistent performance without overbuilding your setup.
